Quick change
I made a quick change: "Christopher Arp of Psyopus auditioned in this guitarist search, as he later said in an interview with Terrorizer magazine, and Eddie Van Halen auditioned for fun due to him being friends with the band." I did this because it is unnecessary information that has nothing to do with Limp Bizkit directly (or anything else in the article). It was not cited, and all effort to find a source were unsuccessful.

Band member IP edits
For the last week or so, various IPs have repeatedly been removing or tweaking info related to band membership. For example, removing DJ Lethal. Is there any grounds for the removal, or actual confusion on this point, or is this just vandalism or misguided edits? So far none of the IPs have discussed or even given an edit summary, so I wasn't sure.
The music business, media and general public consensus is that LB is regarded and most associated with ‘nu metal’. No need for reference as any quick Google search proves it Cambodia3DBY (talk) 16:16, 16 April 2023 (UTC)
Fred Durst referring to himself as the “king of nu metal” on track 4 “Turn It Up, B*tch” from their latest album ‘Still Sucks’ (2021). Additionally -and on the same song- referring to the band as “nu metal one hit wonders”.
Misplaced Pages’s Nu metal page: “Nu metal became popular in the late 1990s with bands and artists such as Korn, Limp Bizkit, and Slipknot all releasing albums that sold millions of copies.”
These are just a few examples (quick google search, first hits) to prove that Limp Bizkit is widely recognized as a nu metal band. Acknowledged by the band members themselves, the media, the critics and the fans.
Hope with this information you reconsider your position and change the main genre on their Misplaced Pages page.
